When your canine companion runs off or disappears into thin air, it can be a terribly terrifying time for any pet parent.
But when you live in a big city or metropolitan area like Brooklyn, it can be even scarier, knowing that the places your dog could be are seemingly endless. When Brooklyn man Francisco Vasquez’ German Shepherd named Chase disappeared from his home this weekend, he was understandably terrified. “I was out looking for him for six or seven hours yesterday,” Vasquez told the Daily News.
“We’ve been to all the shelters looking for him,” he said. “We didn’t want him to suffer.” Vasquez looked all over town before the answer became obvious that his water-loving pooch must have jumped in Gravesend Bay for a swim.
The NYPD received several calls about a dog trying to keep his head above water.
When the NYPD Scuba Team showed up, Chase appeared to be in distress, Officer Brian Magoolaghan and NYPD spokesman told The Daily News. “This wasn’t a happy dog out there for a swim,” Magoolaghan said. “He was having some level of discomfort.”
